ECKLES HEADS ANNUAL P.B.H. CLOTHING DRIVE

EIGHT ASSISTANTS APPOINTED FOR HOUSES AND YARD

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

R. B. Eckles '32 has been chosen to lead the annual spring drive conducted by Phillips Brooks House for clothing and books. Starting this morning, the collection will last for two weeks, and all students in the College will be canvassed by collectors in the various entries.

Eight assistants have been appointed who will have charge of the drive in their respective Houses and the Yard, and who have in turn appointed their own corps of collectors. These men, with their districts, are as follows: W. L. West '32, Lowell House; George Wightman '34, Winthrop; J. M. Davis, Jr. '32, Eliot House; B. E. Estes '32, Kirkland House; L. O. Paul '32, Dunster House; R. H. Hunt '32, Adams House; J. A. Lowenberg '32, Leverett House; F. DeW. Bolman '35, the Yard.

Brooks House conducts a drive each spring for clothing, which is distributed to needy students and authorized relief agencies in Cambridge and Boston, and also for books for its loan library. The textbooks received, are at the disposal of all members of the College and the graduate schools. Because of the decreased income of many students, a large call for clothing and books on the part of members of the University is anticipated this year.

All students leaving college before the end of the drive are requested to turn over to the collectors any contributions.
